Very well explained, excellent tut mate !

[@RoundTableAnimation]

Thanks so much!

[@David_Fernandez]

Same problem here. I just get two frames in the beginning of the sequence ... how to solve this? Thanks a lot in advance!

[@360wol]

I was trying this for camera track in blender, but it wasn't working. so I added some keyframes in blender camera, then exported. now it's working. Thanks

[@Uliszs3d]

Thank you !!! a very useful tip

[@Leitin]

Thank you, my God, I owe you a lot. I was having problems with the camera for a long time and you help me to fix it

[@Khudocomics]

Thanks bro you are a life sever i been looking for this like crazy serious

[@RoundTableAnimation]

Oh for sure! Glad it helped!!

[@christianmklein]

Thanks dawg

[@hotsauce7124]

Thank you

[@artistcg1997]

nice!)

[@redsprites5216]

Unity needs to add this feature for the LOVE OF GOD!!!

[@JDARRASVP]

Hie, thanks for this video but I don't get rotation and the position is a bit strange, is it not moving a lot ! How can I fix this ?

[@TOAKSuriFox]

How did you export the characters and there animation into unreal

[@domdom2181]

When I export the camera it looks small as do the track points.

[@Berry_is_fine]

my sequencer is not showing anything, just a blank tab

[@Hanangspoil]

Thank you very much 😀😀

[@RoundTableAnimation]

You are welcome 😊

[@Authintix]

Thanks for the tutorial Cliff!!! By any chance do you think this would work with the camera rig in blender? It has an armature that controls the transformations and focal length.

[@RoundTableAnimation]

I haven't tried it but give it a shot and see what happens!!

[@Authintix]

@@RoundTableAnimation thanks so much bro!!

[@NewMe9013]

@@RoundTableAnimation Excuse me but could you let me know if you see this? I have a question to ask.

[@oscarlowe1872]

I get an error, failed to find matching camera actor. Even though match by name is not selected

[@ryanjstever]

Im just curious, have you been able to match renders coming out of blender and unreal? Meaning, do they match up when you bring them together in a compositor?

[@RoundTableAnimation]

I personally haven't but from the tests that others have done, I believe Blender edges out slightly but you would have to be a master at both to compare. Ideally, use whichever one is easier for you to pick up and push it to its limits!

[@ryanjstever]

@@RoundTableAnimation Thanks! Figured out that you can have 1:1 match when you use USD workflow with Blender and Unreal.

[@LiveUPMedia]

​@@ryanjstever how do you do this

[@JAMs6504]

@@ryanjsteverdo you just save it as USD instead? And use bring it in to UE5?

[@AiYaXuanDa]

Hi，I just follow your step to step , but when I import FBX to UE5 , it got nothing just two keyframes. Would you know how I can solve it ? Thank you!

[@BrownHuman]

Same. Did you find any fix for that ? There's just 2 keyframes on the transform of the Cine Cam actor and nothing else.

[@CarlosMedinaandresmedia]

any fix for this? im getting the same

[@BrownHuman]

@@CarlosMedinaandresmedia better to go with USD format than FBX. There’s a really good video on that check it out

[@AiYaXuanDa]

@@BrownHuman yes...i use USD to avoid this issue

[@JAMs6504]

@@BrownHumando you happen to have the link for that video or know the name?

[@sirrw294]

does this work with UE4 aswell?

[@pronatabiswas8233]

Hello sir, it doesn't work for me. When I import the files it shows only 2 keyframes at the beginning of the timeline(Sequencer). no animation. How can we solve this issue? Please help.

[@maxshooster5429]

Im exporting from Nuke to Blender to Unreal, but my coordinate axes are not matching as they are in the video. For example my Nuke XYZ axes are read into Unreal as XZY axes even by following the guide in this video. Do you have any suggestions?

[@Pickazz]

what a wild sequence 😂😂😂😂

[@chuckmoment]

I keep getting this error message: "Failed to find any matching camera for CineCameraActor. Importing onto first camera from fbx Camera3D1" what is going on???

[@ABMultimediaDesigner]

Great tutorial, but I do want to ask, how do you export the scene and other things in the exact scale to UE5 like what is portrayed in Blender?

[@RaulDznTM]

Pretty nice explain but what about Cinema 4D is it the same? I’m just asking because I’m not finding any good tutorial. I want to import my scene with my camera, which I animated in cinema 4D, the scene is easy to import, but I can’t import Camera to. 😢

[@JAMs6504]

Look up after effect to UE5 tutorials. They use C4D into UE5 via data smith

[@mrFryd4y]

I have no import options on my Camera Actor

[@user-gx6km7cx1o]

does not work from scratch, camera appears in the middle of nowhere under textures and environment, so it's hard to match scenes =(

[@valerakarpenko8079]

Yeah, it is so crap in complex scenes...

[@rainrandomnumber]

does not work, imports only 2 keyframes. Unbelieveable how difficult it is to transfer a simple camera animation..

[@RoundTableAnimation]

I agree, I'm trying to find a way to simulate the same issue everyone is having and finding a clean way to fix it!

[@rainrandomnumber]

@@RoundTableAnimation USD import works perfectly.

[@HYPERGIRLAI]

TYTYTYTYTYTY!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TroubleShotVFX]

This is silly.... It should just work like every other software on earth.
